If you want to be captured by a secret Turin you can take part in a guided tour of Underground Turin.

Beneath the hectic and bustling city of Turin lies another mysterious and unknown world where time seems to stand still. Fifteen meters below the city, the tunnels of the citadel and the sub-cellars of the Baroque palaces are waiting to let you discover their mysteries, on sites of ancient murders which have never been solved.

The journey goes down into an air-raid shelter and includes the Royal ice depots of Porta Palazzo. Just another way to show you an unusual and exciting historical aspect of our city!

By bus and by foot, your guided tour will take you beyond the city walls: through the ancient tunnels of Rome's catacombs, along the rustic Appian Way, and under the arches of the aqueducts of antiquity.

Enjoy a three hour tour that provides a unique perspective on ancient Rome, in an environment that you have never seen in the city center.The bus will take you from the start of the Appian Way, and continue to the southern edge of ancient Rome.

With your tour guide, you will make three stops along the way, giving you an opportunity to walk the ancient Roman countryside, explore the underground catacombs, and examine the masterful structure of Rome's remaining aqueducts.

Set on a plateau almost 700 meters above sea level, the city of Piazza Armerina is not without charm. Founded during the Norman era, its historical quarter has some beautiful churches, including a Baroque cathedral, but most visitors come here to see the Roman Villa, which was built between 330 and 360 AD. Located a few kilometers outside town, the villa is one of the largest Roman dwellings of its kind to have survived antiquity and one of the most important archaeological discoveries with its decorative and figurative mosaics which cover a floor surface of 3.500 square meters.
